problem emm launch

Hi,

After an ungraceful shutdown of my backup server (electricity loss), i'm unable to restart netbackup.

First, i found my vxdbms.conf was corrupt :

11:01:53.639 [10028.10024] <2> read_legacy_touch_file: Found C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackupDB\data\vxdbms.conf; requested from(vxdbms_conf.cpp.1529).
11:01:53.639 [10028.10024] <16> ReadVxDBMS_ConfFile: Illegal configuration file:  C:\Program Files\Veritas\NetBackupDB\data\vxdbms.conf

It's wasn't a 0kb file, but with strange symbol within.

I recreate it with https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH48879

But, it's still impossible to start, emm, and i have this error when i try to ping the database :

13:25:36.281 [6964.7844] <4> ping_database: ODBC connection string=DRIVER=NB SQL Anywhere;CS=utf8;UID=dba;PWD=***************;LINKS=shmem,tcpip{PORT=13785};ServerName=XXXXXXXXX;DBN=NBDB
13:25:36.281 [6964.7844] <16> ping_database: ODBC connection failed.
13:25:36.281 [6964.7844] <16> ping_database: ErrMsg [Sybase][ODBC Driver][SQL Anywhere]Le mot de passe ou l'ID utilisateur est incorrect, ErrCode -1, Sqlstate 28000

I found it's possible to reinitialize it (http://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.000044417), but, i don't want thing to get worse.

Should i continue in this way ?

 

Thank for your help

  • Providing you run catalog backups, you should have a copy of the catalog NBDB files in /usr/openv/db/staging.

    Copy the vxdbms.conf file back from there and see if that helps.
